🔥🔥🔥Vigilant Observer Edmond's R2 is UNDER-RATED!!!!!🔥🔥🔥 (a self-indulgent long-ass Edssay defending a room I really REALLY liked)
So, I have seen a weirdly large amount of comments online saying that the new SSR Edmond's Intimacy Room 2 sucks. I've seen it called boring and a waste of intimacy gifts.
Peace and Love, I know everyone has different tastes---and I am hella biased towards Edmond---
BUT!!!
I believe any perceive shortcomings are completely out-weighed by the elements this room actually focuses on.
At the very least, this intimacy room DESERVES to be appreciated more, rather than ruthlessly slandered.
1) What Happens VS What Doesn't
Here's a very general outline of what happens in R2:
Eiden initiates a "Guard searching/punishing a Prisoner" scene (Roleplay)
Eiden provokes (/ is a Brat to) Edmond (Dom/Sub)
Edmond use essence to conduct electricity into the baton, and uses the electricity to stimulate his exposed skin and dick (Electroplay + Masochism)
Eiden's provocations eventually turn into teasing (Dirty Talk, + light Humiliation)
Eiden uses the top of his foot to rub Edmond's bulge through his pants
Edmond cums first; Eiden teases/provokes him for it
Eiden cums shortly after from the Electroplay
Perfectly normal, standard intimacy room, yes?
But, from what I've gathered, people are labelling it as boring or under-whelming because:
There isn't any Bondage
There isn't significant nudity/direct skin-to-skin touching
The areas that are touched are relatively small (basically just each character's groin)
Edmond isn't the one that gets off from Masochism (or at least, not from physical Masochism)
These points go against what people's EXPECTATIONS were; since the setting of this event was in inside a prison--a harsh environment full of rough individuals and literal bondage--they expected this R2 to be more physical and rough than it actually was.
Hell, even I wasn't expecting for the room to be as "tame" as it was.
But just because my expectations were subverted doesn't mean I got pissy about it.
BECAUSE THIS ROOM IS STILL FUCKING GOOD!!!
I think a lot of people are ignoring the fact that not all BDSM plays NEED Bondage, skin-to-skin, physical pain (in this case, just on Ed's part), etc. to be satisfying--just because they expected that but didn't get it.
2) Missing the Point - THIS ROOM IS STILL HELLA KINKY (A Closer Look at Ed's Satisfaction)
If you're seeing this post, there's a fair chance you've also seen my GIANT Edmond Post for Struggling Fanfic Writers; which is basically a long-ass character analysis of Edmond.
As I mentioned in that post, Edmond H-scenes have certain themes/kinks that re-occur; and as it turns out, the Intimacy Room we'll be looking at today features a lot of them.
However, for the purposes of this post, I'm going to narrow it down to just 2--the 2 that, in my opinion, were the main contributors towards Edmond's orgasm. (After all, the quality of intimacy rooms with each unique character relies on the quality of that character's experience.)
The quality with which these themes/kinks are executed is extremely impressive, which is why it was satisfying to the characters; and thus, satisfying for us players to watch.
(I have censored this image in the hopes that Tumblr won't snipe me)
When R2 starts, Eiden immediately sets the scene by provoking Edmond; saying that Edmond should do is job as a guard and properly search the prisoner.
Via Eiden's provocations, although Edmond is in a vulnerable position--kneeling on the ground--he is, for the moment, playing the Dominant role.
This is another subversion of expectations, which I find very welcoming. This is possibly the closest we've ever gotten to characters switching roles--only, Edmond doesn't actually "top." (Though, now that I think of it, Silver Confessor Olivine R5 also has a similar dynamic....*shrug*)
While Edmond is acting as a Dom, Eiden is a Bratty Submissive; saying things like "it feels like a tickle!" when Edmond starts electrifying the baton.
Edmond is surprised when Eiden gets excited by being treated in such a degrading way (I spy, with my little eye, PROJECTION); but he's shortly thereafter put into a degrading position himself---
This is when Eiden starts rubbing Edmond through his pants with the top of his foot--which honestly isn't far off from the whole stepping-on-others position that is common in BDSM.
If you ask me, this is a HUGE POINT contributing towards the quality of this room: This submissive position, symbolizing Edmond's gradual loss of power/control.
Eiden also teases Edmond in the hopes that he'll suck him off; but, staying in-character, Edmond refuses him.
In other words, not giving Eiden head--another expectation people had that wasn't fulfilled--was literally a part of the play. It's Sexual Denial.
But, as R2 goes on, Eiden's teasing and dirty talk get more and more intense, and it basically ends up switching their roles in this play.
You know how in a typical Edmond H-scene, Eiden's kissing, caressing, etc. gradually make Edmond lose his mind with how horny he gets?
Well, so far, literally the only thing Eiden has done is indirectly rub his bulge. Rather than physical touch, Eiden's dirty talk is what makes Edmond the most aroused.
DEADASS---EIDEN DOESN'T EVEN HAVE TO DO THAT MUCH. HE DOES SUCH A GOOD JOB RILING EDMOND UP JUST WITH HIS WORDS, THAT THIS HAPPENS:
BITCH, EDMOND'S NIPPLES GET ERECT ON THEIR OWN!!!! JUST FROM HOW TURNED ON HE IS!!!! WITHOUT THEM EVER BEING TOUCHED!!!! THAT HAS LITERALLY NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE!!!!!!!!!
All Eiden has to do to fully switch Edmond from the Dom position back into the Sub--making Edmond lose control over himself--is TALK.
THAT IS SO FUCKING SEXY, WHAT THE HELL???? ♡♡♡
This is why I DO NOT UNDERSTAND people that don't like this room.
I've said before--in the GIANT Ed-Post--that Edmond is sensitive. And his H-scenes do a great job of showing that off---via PHYSICAL TOUCH.
But what this intimacy rooms excels at is expressing how Edmond is sensitive to more than just physical touch.
AND THAT IS THE WHOLE DAMN POINT!!!
Let's look again at the evidence:
Listen. I know this intimacy room didn't have the play people were expecting.
BUT IT WAS STILL GOOD.
Speaking from personal experience--and from the obvious arousal and satisfaction Edmond shows in this room--not every BDSM play needs to be super physical. Submission/masochism is not exclusively about physical stimulation/pain.
What we see in this intimacy room is Edmond being dominated in a psychological way, and that's what makes is so damn kinky and rewarding; both for viewers and for Edmond.
3) The GOD-TIER Technical Aspects
...So...did the people that are heavily criticizing this R2 just, like, have their sound off the whole time??? Or did they only read the subtitles without looking at the actual visuals of this intimacy room??????
Even if, for whatever reason, the find the scenario under-whelming, I CANNOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME picture a situation where the voice-acting and animation couldn't make up for that.
Quickly referencing back to the last section of this Edssay; Eiden is teasing Edmond like the entire time, and that "slightly husky" and "seductive" voice is INCREDIBLE. An absolute TREAT for my ears. And Edmond's panting, gasps, and moans???? HOT DAMN.
These two could be doing the most mundane, "boring" sexual act ever, but if we can hear that the both of them are clearly very into it, then why wouldn't it be a satisfying intimacy room???
And then there's the art---
It's all just SO GOOD, DAMMIT!!!!
4) ╭∩╮(˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)╭∩╮♡
I know that this Edssay was unnecessary. I know I spent too much time on it. I know that there's a high likelyhood no one will read it.
And, of course, I know that everyone is entitled to their own opinions.
BUT WHEN THOSE OPINIONS ARE BASED ON SILLY-ASS REASONS, AND END UP SLANDERING MY BOI EDMOND????
AND WHEN THOSE OPINIONS ARE JUST OBJECTIVELY WRONG??? (Peace and love)
I CANNOT, AND WILL NOT, STAY SILENT!!
I WILL PUT A STUPID AMOUNT OF TIME AND EFFORT INTO SCREAMING ABOUT WHY THAT OPINION IS HELLA MISGUIDED, AND I WILL SCREAM INTO THE VOID ABOUT IT!!!!
,; (ง 🔥 ロ 🔥 )ง ;,

..........
This intimacy room was good, dammit....
Stop being so mean to it......

CONGRATULATIONS ON 1K!!! Could you please do Steve, K25 + R5 + W1?❣️
thank you so much!! <3
prompt: knight!steve with ONS/unestablished relationship and “say you want me, and i’ll be yours.”
contains: gender unspecified reader BUT reader does have a vagina and wears a dress/robe in this; knight!steve; oral (reader receiving); secret sex
join the 1k celebration!
Steve kneels below you, brown eyes wide, pupils blown. Your chest feels heavy and stomach electric when his warm hands come to gently grip your hips. He licks his lips, then looks up at you. “Say you want me, and I’ll be yours.”
Your cheeks turn warm and your hands come down to rest on the top of his head. “I want you.”
He smiles wide. He’s the most gentlemanly knight you’ve ever met, and his soft touches continue to prove that. He’s disappearing under your robes, hands pulling at your undergarments. You bite your lip and try to stay grounded, but once Steve’s lips touch your bare skin, you sigh heavily.
His hands are back at your hips, thumbs drawing circles into you. He kisses your lower stomach, then thighs, making his way down slowly before straightening and pressing a kiss right above your core. You reach behind you to grab onto a rogue chair, one sturdy and wooden and sure to hold your weight. A soft gasp leaves your lips as Steve parts your thighs - he nuzzles his nose against your folds, breathing deeply before flicking his tongue out to taste you.
You’ve never been touched like this before. No one else has ever deserved the right. But Steve - you’d give him everything. The entire Kingdom, command of the military - all of you. He’s gentle and kind but still stern and sometimes stoic - and in the same minute he can make you laugh until you’re breathless.
He feels right at home between your thighs. As he gets more experimental, rubbing the bridge of his nose on your clit and using his tongue to explore the rest of you, you fall into a fit of moans. You don’t care if people come looking, or if you’re reprimanded for sleeping with someone below your own social class. You’d do anything to keep him exactly where he is.
But suddenly, Steve’s reappearing from under your skirt, face glistening. “You’d better be quiet,” he orders, his expression hard. He pulls you down to the floor and spreads you out, throws your skirt up over your waist before crawling over top of your trembling form. “Wouldn’t want the entire kingdom to know your purity is being ruined by a knight.”
You grab his face in your hands, staring up into his eyes. “Let them know.”
